LIFTEX 2022 is the UK’s only dedicated event for lifts, escalators and access products and takes place from 12 – 13 October at London’s ExCeL. It promises a unique showcase for anyone looking to source equipment or learn about implications of new regulations.
Oliver Greening, LIFTEX Show Director, explains: “LIFTEX only takes place once every three years so if you’re involved in any aspect of specifying, upgrading or installing lifts then you need to be there.
“It’s the one place in the UK where you can meet suppliers, compare products and gain advice. In addition, we’re running a series of free seminars which will tell you everything you need to know about the latest regulations and your obligations to make sure you are legally compliant and covered.”
